A shock for many that is has 128CUs as they couldn't get that big Navi will have even 80CUs. But AMD is on rails now with only marketing being inferior but their products are on top level. Even their latest GPU drivers for Navi arch are improved (the biggest customer problem for the last 5-6 months). Impressive feat nevertheless, especially for 200W. Big Navi now can easily become the fastest GPU with some distance while using under 300W. It seems that 7nm+ helps muchly in efficiency.
Glue four RDNA shader engines from NAVI 14's shader engine, hence 96 CU.

NAVI 14 shader engine has 24 CU.

NAVI 10 shader engine has 20 CU, but NAVI 10 has two shader engines.
